My Activity
Reviewed The Ultimate Beef Stew
"Followed the recipe exactly, but added some instant mashed potatoes at the end to thicken. After tasting, I think I will leave out the orange zest and clove - I found it overpowering, and it dominated my pallet and nose. Such a shame to have wasted 3 hours for a barely eatable dish.
My recommendation...leave out the clove and orange zest.

"I must have did something wrong...there was a bitter aftertaste. My guess is that it was the whole-wheat flour, or that I substituted sour cream/milk for the buttermilk. I don't know..."

About Me
39 y/o married male with two kids. I'm a self-taught home cook that loves to cook for others, and wishes my kids would eat more of what I cook. While my recipes appeal to the adults, the kids' (6 and 8 y/o) enjoy simple, bland food...some of it unhealthy (hamburgers, hot dogs...mac and cheese...etc). I'm sure there are some folks out there that can sympathize.
My cooking goals include improving my techiques, expanding my basic recipe knowledge so I can experiment with different variations/ingredients, and to expand the pallets of my family. There are several recipes that I find myself cooking over and over, but I need to challenge myself...I feel that I have the ability to turn out some pretty good stuff. I just need to break out of my comfort zone and plan my menus in advance to achieve this goal.
